«Note: We don’ t recommend you to setup your system speed to 75, 83,
112 or 133MHz because these frequencies are not the standard
specifications for CPU, Chipset and most of the peripherals.
Whether your system can run under 75, 83, 112 or 133MHz
properly will depend on your hardware configurations: CPU,
SDRAM, Cards, etc.

Introduction
1.6 What is AGP?
The Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) is a new port on the Host-To-PCI bridge
device that supports an AGP port. The main purpose of the AGP port is to
provide fast access to system memory.
The AGP port can be used either as fast PCI port (32-bits at 66MHz vs.32-Bits at
33MHz) or as an AGP port which supports 2x data-rate, a read queue, and side
band addressing. When the 2x-data rate is used the port can transmit data at
533MB/sec (66.6*2*4). The read-queue can be used to pipeline reads –
removing the effects of the reads-latency. Side band addressing can be used to
transmit the data address on a separate line in order to speed up the
transaction.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3.1. UNPACKING
The main board package should contain the following:
• The 6BXC main board.
• The Retention Mechanism & Attach Mount
• USER’ S MANUAL for main board.
• Cable set for IDE, Floppy devices.
• Diskette or CD for main board Utility.
The main board contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the main board should be left in its original
packing until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat. The
operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the same point
as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the main board carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may
cause damage to your board. Be sure there are no shipping and handling
damages on the board before proceeding.
After opening the main board carton, extract the system board and place it only
on a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the board
for damage. Press down on all of the socket IC's to make sure that they are
properly seated. Do this only on with the board placed on a firm flat surface.
M DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED.

3.4. DRAM INSTALLATION
The main board can be installed with 8 / 16 / 32 / 64 / 128 / 256 MB 168 pins
DIMM module DRAM, and the DRAM speed must be 67~100 MHz for SDRAM
when system bus speed is set to 66MHz. When system bus speed is set to
100MHz, 100MHz SDRAM is required. The DRAM memory system on main
board consists of bank 0, 1& bank 2.
Since 168 pins DIMM module is 64 bits width, therefore 1 piece of DIMM
module may match a 64 bits system. The total memory size is 8 MB ~ 768MB
SDRAM. The DRAM installation position refer to Figure 3.1, and notice the Pin
1 of DIMM module must match with the Pin 1 of DIMM socket. Insert the DRAM
DIMM module into the DIMM socket at Vertical angle. If there is a wrong
direction of Pin 1, the DRAM DIMM module could not be inserted into socket

3.5. CPU SPEED SETUP
The system bus speed can be set to 66 / 100MHz form the DIP SWITCH (SW1).
The user can change the DIP SWITCH (SW2) selection to set up the CPU
speed for different processors. The CPU speed must match with the frequency
RATIO and Front Side Bus (FSB) speed. It will cause system hanging up if the
frequency RATIO and FSB Speed do not match with the CPU.

3.6. CMOS RTC & ISA CFG CMOS SRAM
There're RTC & CMOS SRAM on board; they have a power supply from
external battery to keep the DATA inviolate & effective. The RTC is a REALTIME CLOCK device, which provides the DATE & TIME to system. The CMOS
SRAM is used for keeping the information of system configuration, so the
system can automatically boot OS every time. Since the lifetime of internal
battery is 5 years, the user can change a new Battery to replace old one after it
cannot work.
M Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
M Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the
manufacturer.
M Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’ s instructions.
3.7. SPEAKER CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
There is a speaker in AT system for sound purpose. The 4 - Pins connector
SPKR is used to connect speaker.
3.8. HARDWARE RESET SWITCH CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
The RESET switch on panel provides users with HARDWARE RESET function.
The system will do a cold start after the RESET switch is pushed and released
by user. The RESET switch is a 2 PIN connector and should be installed to RST
on main board.
3.9. POWER LED CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
System has Power LED lamp on the panel of case. The Power LED will light on
off or flash to indicate which step on the system. The connector should be
connected to PWR of main board in correct direction.
3.10. IDE & ATAPI DEVICE INSTALLATION
There are two-Enhanced PCI IDE ports (IDE1, IDE2) on board, which following
ATAPI standard SPEC. Any one IDE port can connected to two ATAPI devices
(IDE Hard Disk, CD-ROM & Tape Driver), so total four ATAPI devices can exist
in a system. The HD is the active LED port for ATAPI devices.

3.11. PERIPHERAL DEVICE INSTALLATION
After the I/O device installation and jumpers setup, the main board can be
mounted into the case and fixed by screw. To complete the main board
installation, the peripheral device could be installed now. The basic system
needs a display interface card. If the PCI - Bus device is to be installed in the
system, any one of four PCI - Bus slots can be used.
3.12. KEYBOARD & PS/2 MOUSE INSTALLATION
The main board supports PS/2 Mouse (J2). The BIOS will auto detect whether
the PS/2 Mouse is installed or not & assign IRQ12 for PS/2 Mouse port if it is
installed. After installing the peripheral device, the user should check
everything again, and prepare to power-on the system.

Memory
The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power On Self
Test) of the BIOS.
Base Memory
The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or
conventional) memory installed in the system.
The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems with
512 K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems
with 640 K or more memory installed on the motherboard.
Extended Memory
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present
during the POST.
This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU's
memory address map.
Expanded Memory

by
the
Lotus/Intel/Microsoft (LIM) standard as EMS.
Many standard DOS applications can not utilize memory above
640 K; the Expanded Memory Specification (EMS) swaps
memory, which not utilized by DOS with a section, or frame, so
these applications, can access all of the system memory.
Memory can be swapped by EMS is usually 64 K within 1 MB or
memory above 1 MB, depends on the chipset design.
Expanded memory device driver is required to use memory as
Expanded Memory.
Other Memory
This refers to the memory located in the 640 K to 1024 K address
space. This is memory that can be used for different applications.
DOS uses this area to load device drivers to keep as much base
memory free for application programs. Most use for this area is
